Upon hearing Lin Ye's words, those who followed him in all wore puzzled expressions.
The task prompt just now wasn't it already very clear?
Within ten days, deliver the 'supplies' to 'West City'!
There was no hint about a task 2!
Could they all have missed seeing it?
But seeing Lin Ye's confident demeanor, everyone couldn't help but doubt if they had indeed missed something.
"Boss, are you planning to directly repel those 'Blood-toothed Orcs'?"
Hook's mind was active, and with a turn of his eyes, he asked.
Upon hearing Hook's words, the others widened their eyes, inwardly cursing themselves for being as dense as pigs!
This line of thinking was indeed flawless!
Delivering 'supplies' to West City was ultimately to repel the enemy on the battlefield, wasn't it?
If this was the thought process, then achieving the ultimate goal meant that the task of transporting supplies became secondary, right?
"But can this really work? I remember that in the Battle of West City, it isn't possible to completely eliminate those beastmen..." Huo Ting said with a peculiar expression.
It's quite normal that Lin Ye would have such an idea.
Indeed, historically, some have tried splitting into two groups; one group escorted the supplies to ensure the task wouldn't be judged as a failure, while the other headed to West City to directly eliminate the Blood-toothed Orcs.
But the conclusion was that these orcs couldn't be completely wiped out, let alone driven away.
So Lin Ye's thinking seemed correct, but it was indeed unachievable.
The others present thought there was no problem merely because they didn't understand about this Secret Realm.
Huo Ting, being the future leader of the guild, had some preliminary understanding and study of these trials.
Facing Huo Ting's doubts, Lin Ye only smiled slightly.
Her doubt proved that she indeed knew something about this Secret Realm, but not much.
Because those who tried before never reached the trigger condition for the hidden task!
Within three days of the task's commencement, if one could rush to West City and kill the Blood-toothed Orcs' general before the defending leader perishes, one could directly drive away these Blood-toothed Orcs.
If unable to reach West City and kill the Blood-toothed Orcs' general within three days, the defending general would certainly die, and the Blood-toothed Orcs' general would subsequently leave the battlefield, making this hidden task unable to be completed.
The completion conditions for this task were indeed quite harsh.
Challengers must first split into two; one group is responsible for protecting the supply convoy and preventing the supplies from being damaged, which would lead to an immediate task failure.
Then, another group must reach West City within three days and kill the Beastman General.
The difficulty level was maximized.
In the previous life, this hidden task was completed by the then world's largest guild, Mad God Guild.
The method to complete the hidden task wasn't hard to guess; it just required certain means.
Moreover, the risk was relatively high.
Without absolute certainty, no one would dare to attempt it.
But now, this task was preemptively taken by Lin Ye.
With a dragon guarding the supply convoy, Lin Ye naturally didn't need to worry about safety on that side.
As for killing the Beastman General, to Lin Ye, it wasn't a difficult matter...
"The boss surely has a way, we'll just follow his lead!" Hook stepped up and spoke to everyone.
"That's right! I believe in Boss Lin Ye!"
Zhao Xue Ming and Li Feng also spoke up, showing unwavering support for Lin Ye's judgment.
"Rest assured, I won't let everyone down. Just give me three days, if I fail, then we can start the supply task, seven days should still be enough."
Lin Ye turned to them and said.
Along the way, there would be more and more orcs attacking the supply convoy, so staying in this camp was safest.
With the guardian dragon, those orcs couldn't even approach near the camp.
Lin Ye could thus focus on killing the Beastman General and completing this hidden task.
"Alright! We'll wait for you here!"
Huo Ting also spoke up.
Since Lin Ye said so, there's nothing more to say, just support him completely!
"Three days, if I don't return, just start the supply task directly." Lin Ye paused, then added, "However, it shouldn't take me as long as three days..."
The calm words nevertheless contained a confidence that reassured them!
"I understand!" Huo Ting's eyes sparkled.
As the guild president's daughter and the highest Level Professional in the team besides Lin Ye, she was the deputy leader of this team!
After Lin Ye leaves, she would be the one leading the team.
Huo Ting's ability was adequate; she wouldn't lead the others into a reckless situation.
After these reminders, Lin Ye turned and walked away without looking back...
Soon, his figure disappeared into a dark forest, completely vanishing.
The Swamp Giant Dragon watched Lin Ye leave, then began walking toward the camp.
Each step of the massive body made the entire forest tremble.
The horses in the camp shivered under the dragon's aura...
Seeing the commotion caused by the dragon, the surrounding Professionals couldn't help but swallow hard.
It's truly hard to imagine how powerful Lin Ye must be to make such a terrifying creature bow to him.
It's simply unfathomable.
"Alright, since the boss wants us to stay here, we have to be vigilant! Don't let the boss down!" Huo Ting said.
The remaining Professionals answered in unison! Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on NoveI[F]ire.net
Their voices faintly carried a bit of excitement!
Perhaps, they could also share the glory of completing a hidden task.
With such thoughts, they were even more attentive to the task of guarding the camp!
If anything went wrong on their side and not on Lin Ye's, they wouldn't know how to face Lin Ye.
As the Swamp Giant Dragon looked at the spirited young people, it just lay idly on the ground.
Compared to the master, these young ones were simply too weak.
It even thought that with a single breath, it could wipe them all out.
Thinking of this, its eyes casually glanced into the distance...
In the dense forest, a large shadow rose and then dispersed everywhere.
The dragon's pupils slightly contracted.
Truly worthy of being the master!
Controlling so many puppets single-handedly!
It looked at Hook and the others once more...
They must diligently complete the master's entrusted task and protect these little guys.
